    believe me its not always you, we all go through it at some point, just try and suck it up as much as u can and move on, its going to happen again, but on the other hand it will happen in your favour once or twice to :D

    The river, the turn, the flop.. makes no difference. A large part of poker is LUCK (or Variance if you want to use the posh lingo). Sometimes it goes for you, sometimes against. You can't control that element of the game, but it's one of the things that makes the game so much fun.

    Hahaha, although you saying "Mario" sends me back to GTA Vice City background characters. "Hey, Mario, I never touched your sister!"

    That would be a cool game though.  Once every torunament a player can "STOP THE RIVER" and the winning hand at the turn takes it down 

    How cool would that be ;o)

    We could call in River Dam Hold'em

    I'm curious to know which 'band' should represent the river.

    Ocean Colour Scene perhaps?

    got rivered last nite and its one of the painfullest ones yet due to my stack and was on my way to my biggest ever cash in an mtt, im 3/10 in mtt on another site, 5k up top, i 4bet AK from the sb, button calls, flop - A 4 7, I bet button calls turn is another 4, i bet out again and he jams, i snap him off and he turns over A9, river card to come......................9. coulda fired the computer threw the window at the time but i sat back and thought about the previous times in the tournament when i rivered somebody else and you just have to suck it up and accept that sometimes it runs for you and sometimes it doesnt. no good having a selective memory.

    Ahhh good times. Aint heard them for yonks, I remember I was about 13-14 (I think) when Moseley Shoals came out and I just listened to it non stop.

    FWIW though OP... do you still wanna stop the river when you get it in with 2 overs + FD and the river completes your flush ;)

    Fixed for who exactly?

    Does each site just pick a few names out of a hat and they're the people who win enough to make a living from the game?

    Good point Lambert - I always wondered why I'm not the one deemed worthy of selection. If we all kept a tally of the hands we have been rivered and have rivered someone else, even after a week, we would see the numbers are fairly even.

    But poker amnesia doesn't work that way.
